Detroit Lions star receiver Jameson Williams won’t be facing any league discipline after an October 2024 incident in which he was pulled over with an unlicensed gun, per the Detroit Free Press. 

Williams faced arrest on a gun charge after being pulled over on Oct. 8, 2024, where he and his brother had two handguns in the vehicle at the time. 

The guns were registered properly, but Williams did not have a concealed carry license on him, which could’ve led to a charge of carrying a concealed weapon in a motor vehicle.

Williams’ brother, however, does have a concealed pistol license.

Williams had been in handcuffs at the scene, but he was not taken to jail or charged in the incident. 

It was also reported that the police sergeant on the scene recognized Williams, having been a Lions fan.

The sergeant had made calls to higher-ranking officials during the time of the arrest, and after a lieutenant told the sergeant the brothers could be let go, the sergeant told the lieutenant he is a "[expletive] hero" and thanked him. That is when Williams was removed from handcuffs and let go without further issue.

According to bodycam footage, the sergeant’s phone background was a Lions logo.
